No dog is going to be perfect but if you take in a dog with an "OBIVIOUS" fault then you don't care about the representation of the breed. All yorkies are pretty! Some are pets and some are show dogs. Show breeders are only asking and trying to educate on is that you show the best representation of the breed and go by what the standard is saying that means "no chocolate" because it's not the steel blue it's calling for in the standard. Almost every show breeder has pet quality puppies in a litter and if something is way off you spay and place that yorkie into a loving and caring home as such as any of you. I know show breeders that take dogs in the ring all the time that shouldn't be in the ring and that's why you have so many that are on YT that get frustrated with taking in those that don't fit the standard in the ring and are so passionate about it. All we are asking is educate yourself and if you know it's not up to standard why do it? Again, just like children you want them to follow the rules but how can you expect them too when the adults can't!

The day before the show i called for temp #.s and ask was liver or choc a dsq and the lady said it did not state that color as a dsq but they did have a standard so i took a chance my first show i didnt do it to be rebellous i did it because i want this line in the public eye and educated that they re just as good as pets as your show quality dogs. nothing more i just did it no
regrets and i would do it again. ukc allowed her in the ring so where was the proffesional when i ask if she could show or not. no one told me i couldnt show her. NO ONE actually i was invited because someone seen my dog. thank you
